Yeah I had friends who were scared of smurfs. Their church told them they are evil. If you slept in a room with them you would wake up with scratches. Very bizarre

Smurfs??? Ok I’m an 80s kid and that’s a new one. And I was a kid right smack in the Satanic Panic era!
it’s even more ridiculous how they shun Harry Potter, despite the fact that J.K. Rowling holds values that often align with theirs
Well, they love her now that she hates trans people. Hating trans people is more important to them than being afraid of Satan I guess 🤷♂️
During that era, anything even vaguely tied to sorcery, like Gargamel’s magic, or simply anything wildly popular was treated with suspicion. The belief was that mass appeal could slowly chip away at the fragile structure of Christian values
